Mandalay Lodge, Goatacre Road, Medstead, GU34 5PU

Mandalay Lodge is a very well-appointed and handsome detached family house standing in a tranquil setting with just over 1.6 acres of grounds and far‐reaching rural views.

Designed to maximise its south‐westerly aspect, the house is light‐filled and spacious, centred around an impressive galleried reception hall.

The principal living spaces are ideal for modern family life and entertaining, with the kitchen, sitting room and dining room all opening out to the rear garden.

The bespoke kitchen, featuring granite work surfaces and travertine flooring, forms the heart of the home, while the triple‐aspect sitting room with a wood‐burning stove offers a warm and inviting retreat.

There are five bedrooms set within the main house and further bedroom accommodation within the studio annexe and cabin.

The principal bedroom accommodation includes a very impressive principal bedroom suite with a balcony and fine views over the garden to the open countryside beyond.

There is also a second bedroom suite and separate family bathroom with a traditional roll top bath and sanitary ware.

A key attraction is the property’s income potential, with a detached garage (with an adjoining laundry room) and a very well-appointed self‐contained one‐bedroom studio annexe above with a wood buring stove, ideal for holiday lets, guests or ancillary accommodation.

In addition, a separate, established AirBnB bespoke cabin annexe (also with a wood burinng stove) stands within the grounds and provides a further potential income stream, creating a rare opportunity to combine a beautiful village home with flexible, income‐generating living.

Outside The house stands within attractive grounds with a landscaped garden and paddock providing an ideal setting and a good degree of seclusion with long rural views.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and has a principally south-west aspect with an extensive area of decking and pergola providing an ideal space for outdoor entertaining.

The garden extends to an enclosed paddock (with Bridleway access to the rear) and the one bedroom cabin.

The house is approached at the front via a brick paved driveway providing ample parking and access to the detached double garage with an external staircase to the first floor one bedroom studio.

Situation The house occupies a rarely available location about one mile to the south of the centre of the village with distant views over open farmland.

Medstead is a thriving and very active village centred around a village green and hall with a strong community and a broad range of clubs and societies for all ages including a cricket club, tennis club, bowls club, and gardeners club to name a few.

The village also has the benefit of a number of amenities with 'The Castle of Comfort' Inn, C of E primary school, St. Andrew's Church, local shops and cafe.

The beautiful surrounding countryside provides ample opportunity for many country pursuits with footpaths leading directly from the lane.

The market towns of Alton and Alresford both provide a good range of facilities with two secondary schools, sixth form college and a station to London Waterloo at Alton and the well renowned Perins secondary school at Alresford.

The regional town of Basingstoke and the cathedral city of Winchester collectively provide a wider range of facilities as well as access to the M3 and mainline railway stations to London Waterloo.
